I found out that my family thinks that I am a responsible person in terms of sense of responsibility. But my brother thinks I’m immature. In terms of duties at home‚ my mother and father understand that I don’t perform my duties because I’m busy with my studies. My sister thinks it too but she justified that I perform when I’m not busy. When

Abstract This experiment is about the synthesis of 3-nitrobenzaldehyde through nitration. The nitration of benzaldehyde is an example of an electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction‚ in which a proton of an aromatic ring is replaced by a nitro group. Many aromatic substitution reactions are known to occur when an aromatic substrate is allowed to react with a suitable electrophilic reagent‚ and many other groups besides nitro may be introduced into the ring. Although the reaction produced a low

Formic acid is known to be the simplest carboxylic acid‚ and it is an important factor in chemical synthesis and occurs naturally. The chemical formula for Formic Acid is CH202‚ and is mostly found in the venom of bee and ant stings. Formic acid is clear and colorless with a pungent odor. Formic acid is used in many ways; Formic acid is used to preserve livestock. It is also sprayed on animal food and fresh hay to reduce the decay rate. It can also be used as a pesticide to protect bee

Synthesis The idea of gender wage discrimination being widely practiced in the United States today is a difficult concept for many to swallow. With the Equal Pay Act of 1963 and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964‚ the realization of the existence of the gender wage gap surprises many Americans. These authors bring to the forefront the idea that there is more to the gender wage gap then just companies discriminating against women and minorities. They sight many sources with defined data

Liquid Crystals from Coconut Oil Fatty Acids - Investigatory Project Liquid Crystals from Coconut Oil Fatty Acids Abstract Liquid crystals are fluids that are between the solid and conventional liquid phases. Liquid crystals are in widespread use‚ especially in optical technologies. They are synthesized by combining fatty acids with cholesterol. This study aims to utilize coconut oil as an alternative source of fatty acids for synthesizing liquid crystals since coconut is cheap and abundant

Synthesis “The kingdom of heaven is within the mind of a person‚ not within the collective mindlessness of a crowd.” In the articles‚ “The Only True God and Jesus Christ Whom He Hath Sent”‚ by Jeffery R. Holland and “Propaganda under a dictatorship”‚ by Aldous Huxley are two totally different topics. This paper will be a breaking down of the two articles and finding the similarities between the two of them. It will be interesting‚ but nothing is impossible. The two topics are Hitler wanting so

Prelab 5B Macrocyclic Synthesis OBJECTIVE: The objective this week is to produce Tetraphenylporphyrin and its metal complex. This will be carried out by condensation of 4 equivalents of Benzaldehyde and pyyrole in the presence of propanoic acid. The product will undergo UV/Visible Spectrum tests to determine its lambda max. The lambda max will show us the relationship between a conjugated system and the visible spectrum. PROCEDURE: Step 1: preparation of meso-tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP)

discovery of base-pairing in nucleic acids. These complementariness principles do not only underlie current ideas on the structure of the nucleic acids‚ but they form the foundation of all speculations‚ more or less well- founded‚ on their physical properties (denaturation‚ hypochromic- ity‚ etc.)‚ on the transfer of biological information from deoxy- ribonucleic acid to ribonucleic acid‚ and on the role of the latter in directing the synthesis of specific proteins. They form the basis
